Safari, the web browser from Apple, is now available for download here for Windows. The interfaces is slick and it seems to load webpages quickly. It appears to use the KHTML engine for rendering webpages, which apparently has great web standards support. Nice, but unnecessary seeing as how I think it is not as good as Firefox. So the big question is “Why did Apple do it?”

Is it possible for Linux to win in the fight for desktop users against Microsoft Windows? Is it possible for Microsoft to stay competitive against another operating system that is available for free when it has spent over $6 billion dollars to make Vista?
I recently read yet another article posing the question of what would happen if Microsoft makes Windows available for free (as in price, not open source). I personally think this is a ridiculous question to ask because users already pay for Windows. Price is not the issue. Users also pay for Mac OS X, which is built upon the BSD like Darwin. Linux can be much like OS X using nothing but free, open source software. So why do people pay for an operating system?
